<em><img alt="MBDA High Tech" src="/sites/default/files/uploads/images/mbdahightech.jpg" style="width: 300px; height: 193px; float: right;" />Innovation</em>. When most people hear or use this term, they are referring to new, cutting edge technology and products. However, innovation means much more than that. <em>Operational innovation</em> involves creating entirely new ways of filling orders, developing products, providing customer service, or doing any other activity that an enterprise performs.</p>
<p>
David Brier, a brand identity expert, explains the single difference between the innovator and the ordinary person as: <em><a href="http://www.commerce.gov/www.fastcompany.com/3020950/what-is-innovation">The innovator sees the dots and connects them while ordinary people either 1) don&rsquo;t see them, or 2) don&rsquo;t explore, question, or connect any of them</a>.</em></p>
<p>
The Atlanta MBDA Business Center connected the dots when they recognized the potential for substantial growth among minority-owned information technology firms in relation to the growing demand for healthcare IT services. A successful partnership with the Healthcare Supplier Diversity Alliance enabled the Center to transition 77 minority-owned businesses into the rapidly growing healthcare industry in fiscal year 2014.</p>
<p>
The Minneapolis MBDA Business Center connected the dots by realizing that baby boomer business owners are retiring and selling their companies. They also realized that acquiring these businesses is a perfect opportunity for minority-owned firms to increase revenue, expand operations, and create jobs.</p>

This issue brief finds that policy changes that affect patenting could affect innovative startups as they may heavily utilize patents to raise funds to continue to innovate.</p>
<h3>
The importance of patents to the economy</h3>
<p>
Patents are at the crux of innovation in the economy. Patents provide a framework by which innovative research can take place and new technologies can be disseminated. In particular, patents provide a clear economic incentive to undertake innovative research that has the potential to substantially grow startups.<a href="#fnt1"><sup>1</sup></a> Patents protect researchers and investors with clear determinations of intellectual property rights while also providing a vehicle with which to share newly developed technologies without a fear of losing ownership of intellectual property.<a href="#fnt2"><sup>2</sup></a></p>

<img alt="SBIR/STTR Website" src="/sites/default/files/uploads/images/blog_sbirwebsite.jpg" style="width: 300px; height: 216px; float: right;" />The Administrator of the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), Maria Contreras-Sweet announced during National Small Business Week 2015 that the SBA is crowdsourcing the official logo for the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Programs, &ldquo;America&rsquo;s Seed Fund&rdquo; and has made major improvements to the <a href="http://www.sbir.gov/" target="_blank">www.sbir.gov</a> website.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
The SBA oversees the SBIR and the STTR programs, America&rsquo;s largest seed fund for small businesses in the STEM fields.&nbsp; These programs allocate $2.5 billion a year to small innovators. By reserving a specific percentage of federal R&amp;D funds for smaller firms, this encourages domestic small businesses to engage in high-growth priorities and build a strong national economy.</p>

As directed by the statute, the proposed small business mentor-prot&eacute;g&eacute; program is modeled on SBA&rsquo;s existing 8(a) Business Development mentor-prot&eacute;g&eacute; program.</p>
<p>
The expansion of the program will increase opportunities for small businesses to enter the federal marketplace as well as to pursue larger and more complex requirements. The mentor prot&eacute;g&eacute; program is designed to pair up nascent firms that are facing potential development gaps with larger, more experienced firms that can assist in filling those gaps.</p>
<p>
Mentors typically provide support in areas such as managerial experience, past performance qualifications, project implementation know-how and the ability to manage larger and complex contracts.</p>

The SBIR Road Tour &ldquo;Seeding America&rsquo;s Future Innovations,&rdquo; is a nationally focused outreach initiative targeting advanced technology communities, including women-owned and minority-owned small businesses in states that have underutilized funding opportunities through these programs. Today, the agency is launching information on the tour through <a href="http://www.sbir.gov/" target="_blank">www.sbir.gov</a> and will also launch a blog that will be active up through the end of the tour in late August.</p>

The SFMBC, along with its sister San Jose and Fresno MBDA Business Centers, serve the Greater San Francisco Bay Area, which is universally recognized as one of the world&rsquo;s leading regions for technology innovation and entrepreneurship. Minority business entrepreneurs (MBEs) in this region are not short of innovative ideas and are all too eager to gain access to cutting-edge technologies from national laboratories and universities, especially in life sciences, IT, and clean technology sectors. We&rsquo;re working diligently to get those MBEs into these emerging markets.</p>

<img alt="Patented Stamp" src="/sites/default/files/uploads/images/blog_patentprobono.jpg" style="width: 300px; height: 225px; float: right;" />Helping small businesses and independent inventors with limited resources is an important goal of the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), and supports the Administration&rsquo;s commitment to balance the playing field for all entrepreneurs looking to innovate. It also supports the <a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2014/02/20/fact-sheet-executive-actions-answering-president-s-call-strengthen-our-p" target="_blank">White House executive actions</a> issued to improve the patent system.</p>
<p>
One of those executive actions aims to expand coverage of the Patent Pro Bono Program to all 50 states, and I am pleased to announce that we are making great strides towards bringing pro bono assistance to inventors across the country.</p>
<p>
Because patents fuel our economy and stimulate job creation, the USPTO wants to make sure the patent system is accessible to all. With this in mind, the USPTO works with intellectual property law associations and local bar associations across the country to help them establish pro bono inventor assistance programs in their specific regions.</p>
